 That depends on how you use it. The assumption is, that you are
 pulling data with doXHR. If you want to push data, you should specify
 the method. Most other HTTP-agents also default to using GET, and only
 use POST, when explicitly told to. (Take the browser, for example)

I thought loadJSON was for pulling from server and doXHR was for
pushing to server.  I didn't know doXHR could be used for both.

I suppose you'll say that doXHR is needed when people do NOT want to
pull data from server in JSON format?

doXHR is the primitive operation used by all XMLHttpRequest-based
operations, including loadJSON.
